"...the next day you hop a plane at JFK to hustle down to Brazil to play drums for Bon Jovi in front of 80,000 people"

"Before we go on, let's not give the impression Scannella is some schlub with a pair of drumsticks; he's the drummer for Jon Bon Jovi's solo band, he's played with Bruce Springsteen and recorded with Lady Gaga ..."

I clearly don't know how this works, but how is playing for Jon Bon Jovi's solo band not the same thing as playing for Bon Jovi? I don't get it.

So umm yeah, we need you down here in Brazil. yeah ASAP... no, no, uh bring your own sticks but you can use the gear that's here... what's that? Oh, um, yeah I hear that kayak.com has all the best prices on one site, you might want to check southwest.com as well. Welp, gotta run, be here in 24 hours - you can sleep in with the roadies. Bye

One is the band called Bon Jovi, the other is a band led by the solo artist named Bon Jovi.

So, the guy's not really a touring drummer. He's more of a studio guy, some live performances, but probably never anything on that scale. Jon Bon Jovi doesn't tour much on his own without the rest of the band.
